Tailbite v1.4.17 for Windows and PB 5.31 + PB 5.40 LTS

Psych · **Posted:** Mon Jun 29, 2015 10:56 pm

Hi,

Thank you so much for this, I have been waiting for tailbite to be fixed for newer versions of pb for ages.

When I was experimenting with tools, I found a way to reload the sources (something you have to do every time you rebuild a lib), maybe you'd like to include it as a standard feature in your next release.

Code:

ProcedureDLL.l Makelong_(lowWord.w,highWord.w) ; Create long from low and high words
   ProcedureReturn (highWord<<16)|lowWord
EndProcedure
IDE=Val(GetEnvironmentVariable("PB_TOOL_MainWindow"))
PostMessage_(IDE,#WM_COMMAND,Makelong_(53,0),0)

I can't see any reason why fred would change the menu identifiers in the future.

Hi Psych,

Thanks for the information. I had noch much time in the last days so i could not answer...

The ideas is good, but you need the "hwnd" of the PureBasic Windows to send them comands. So your code doesnt work in a tailbite.exe file. I solved this problem with the following tricky solution:

Code:

  
  ProcedureDLL.l Makelong_(lowWord.w,highWord.w) ; Create long from low and high words
     ProcedureReturn (highWord<<16)|lowWord
  EndProcedure
  
  Procedure FindPartWin(part$)
    r=GetWindow_(GetDesktopWindow_(),#GW_CHILD)
    Repeat
      t$=Space(999) : GetWindowText_(r,t$,999)
      If FindString(t$,part$,1)<>0 And IsWindowVisible_(r)=#True
        w=r
      Else
        r=GetWindow_(r,#GW_HWNDNEXT)
      EndIf
    Until r=0 Or w<>0
    ProcedureReturn w
  EndProcedure

  PostMessage_(FindPartWin("PureBasic"),#WM_COMMAND,Makelong_(53,0),0) ; -> send the commands

i have actualized the tailbite.exe file to 1.4.15. Please check the taiklbite file, i hope it works now...

Hi,

i have actualized the tailbite.exe file to 1.4.16. These version works with PB 5.40 Beta 8. The libs made with <PB 5.31 are not working in PB 5.40 Beta 1 anymore. Please check the tailbite file, i hope it works now...

I install Tailbite like you say
I use the normal Tailbite 1.4.11 installer and change the Tailbite.exe file with The exe file for exchange
http://www.flasharts.de/mpz/Tailbite/Tailbite.exe
I install it on PB 5.31 version
When I try to compile the exemple the compiler say to me

Quote:

Sorry you need PBCompiler.exe to make PureLibrairies with tailbite. compilers\pbcompilers.exe

and after it stopped

Hi,

you must start the Tailbitemanager in the Tailbite folder. Here you must choose the correct folder
of Purebasic. With the manager start you the program tailbite

Hello mpz. Thanks for your sharing.

This file is missing :

Code:

IncludeBinary "TailBite Installer Build.prefs"

Is it necessary for the compilation?

mpz · **Posted:** Sun Oct 11, 2015 1:15 am

Hi falsam,

ther file "TailBite Installer Build.prefs" will created from the "TailBite Installer Build.pb" file. I think it is a part if you create a new taibile Installer file. But here you need only the tailbite installer and exchange the tailbite.exe file. I dont have made a new installer because it is made with a old PB version and i need to much time to change the comands to the new pb version. Perhaps anybody will make a new installer file, i will help him

Greetings Michael

I make it but the problem was identical with the same error . I use PB.5.31 and windows 10

HI,

i dont have windows 10. Can you install the Tailbite Installer with the "right Mousebutton" and the function "Install as Administrator" please? I think it is an access rights problem of the installation directory

I arrive to compile on two conditions :
- First i put the programm in Windows8 compatibility
- Second i give right for reading and writing on Tailbite directory
With that all works thanks MPZ

Tailbite should be buried. It causes nothing but trouble! Some excellent work by gnozal has been lost forever.

tailbite was not from gnozal, it was El-Choni´s baby .
and gnozal did not release any includes or modules.
so it is his fault btw.

The last source (1.4.11) on the tailbite , site here
we talk about the 1.4.17 .

Hi IdeasVacuum,

i love my Tailbite and it is not dead, it lives.I am working on new windows versions if a new pb version comes out, but i dont have linux and MAC to check the other OS Systems...

@ Rings
actualized sourcecode Tailbite:

Please get the normal 4.11 Sourcecode. Then atualize the files from my first post like:

Here the sourcodes i have changed ( with much debug function for testing)
http://www.flasharts.de/mpz/Tailbite/TailBite.pb -> Only new testfile implemented <--- My new code
....
....
And you have my tailbite code 1.4.17.

If anybody need my tailbite sourcecodes as zip file, send me a pm with email adress for example...

Greetings Michael

i hope Gnozal will come back, but is is only a little hope
